Hello 2024 Ballon d'Or Fans. Welcome to watch every Plame live stream here
A new era in football has truly begun and for the first time in ages Ballon d'Or nomination list does not have the names of either Lionel Messi or Cristiano Ronaldo. The 68th edition of the prestigious award ceremony will take place soon in Paris and fans can not wait for the grand show.
With the two stars, who shared 10 straight Ballon d'Ors from 2008 to 2017, out of contention, it is time for new names to rise. In fact, Luka Modric and Karim Benzema, the only two players to have won the award since 2007 apart from Messi and Ronaldo, too are missing from the nomination list. The new generation is ready to take over the award that is arguably the biggest individual prize in all of football.
With the Messi-Ronaldo duopoly now firmly behind us, here we take a look all major things you would want to know about the Ballon d'Or 2024 ceremony.
First given in 1956, Ballon d'Or is given to the best footballer of the previous season by French magazine France Football. The award is regarded as among the biggest individual prizes in football.
Apart from the best male player, awards are also given to recognise the best female players, coaches and clubs, in addition to the top scorer, goalkeeper, young player.
Vinicius Junior remains the front-runner to win Ballon d'Or 2024 after his brilliant run that saw the Brazillian win the Laliga and Champions League double this season with Real Madrid. He will be given tough competition by his own Real Madrid teammate Jude Bellingham.
Rodri, the Player of the Tournament in Spain’s Euro 2024 triumph, is also in contention alongside his Manchester City teammate Erlin Haaland. Both of them helped City win their fourth straight Premier League title.
